Our Mission

The Sloth Conservation Foundation (SloCo) is a registered non-profit organisation dedicated to saving sloths in the wild through research and conservation initiatives. Based on the belief that teamwork and collaboration are essential for success, it is the mission of SloCo to bring together all people, partners, and institutions working globally with sloths to achieve lasting conservation solutions.

Founded on the idea that every single person has the ability to make a positive difference, the Sloth Conservation Foundation aims to stimulate progressive change through the education of local communities and lobbying for change at a government level. We are focused on inspiring individuals to care about sloths, to protect the rainforest ecosystem and to safeguard a future for the planet that we all share.

Furthermore, they will only do it on the ground. This weird weekly routine remains one of the biggest mysteries surrounding sloth behaviour. The likely explanation is that it’s all about communication and reproduction.
